The Poppy

[yeboah]

I am not a badge of Honour

I am not a Racist smear

I am not a fashion statement

To be worn but once a Year

I am not Glorification

Of conflict or of War

I am not a paper Ornament

A Token I am more

 

I am a loving Memory

Of a Father or a Son

A permanent Reminder

Of each and everyone

I'm paper or anamel

I'm old or shining new

I'm a way of saying thank you

 

I am a simple Poppy

A Reminder to you all

That courage Faith and Honour

Will stand where Heroes Fall
